Fiona, Cincinnati’s Adorable Baby Hippo, Gets Her Own Ice Cream Flavor.
Graeter’s ice cream is calling its new, limited-edition flavor “Chunky Chunky Hippo” in honor of the nearly 6-month-old star.
It’ll only be available by the scoop in local shops in Cincinnati and Dayton, Ohio.
But don’t worry if you’re outside those areas, you can order it by the pint via the internet.
And part of the proceeds from each sale will benefit the zoo.
“We’re excited to reveal an ‘extra’ summer flavor this year,” Robert Graeter, the company’s chief of quality assurance, told the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Videos of her taking a shower, swimming in a pool for the first time and meeting her parents have racked up millions of views.
The calf now weighs more than 356 pounds and is living with her mother, Bibi.
“They’ve quickly settled into a comfortable routine with each other, napping through most of the day and waking up in the afternoons for their snacks.” While she now has an ice cream named in her honor, Fiona has only recently been introduced to solid food.
Fiona was introduced to a new food-romaine lettuce!

What does the term “natural flavors” really mean?.
Pin It Ask any nutritionist for advice when it comes to grocery shopping and there’s one thing you’re bound to hear: read labels and stay away from any product filled with 12-letter ingredients that you can’t pronounce.
And few people except food manufacturers actually know what all of those ingredients are, leaving many to wonder whether they’re really as safe as they sound.
Pin It What’s considered “natural”?
But here’s where things get complicated: A single natural flavor can consist of 50 to 100 different components, according to the Environmental Working Group.
Pin It A food scientist’s perspective Dhyaneshwar B. Chawan, PhD, is the president of SRIM Enterprises, a food research company that formulates natural flavors for a variety of food and beverage companies.
He’s been testing ingredients for over 25 years, so he knows exactly what goes into those secretive natural flavor blends.
And even though it’s not all written out on the label, he maintains that solvents, emulsifiers, and preservatives are completely safe to consume.
“Consumers are demanding it, and they’re willing to pay more for brands that have clean labels.” Pin It Health-conscious brands are becoming more transparent Startups aren’t the only ones making steps to be more transparent; bigger companies like KIND, Suja, and Bolthouse Farms are making it a priority too.
So, like many companies, Spindrift turned to a lab of food scientists and tasked them with creating those flavors from natural ingredients.

Edible Flowers: 10 Amazing Flowers You Can Eat.
How to Use Edible Flowers in the Kitchen A number of flowers work well in salads, and you may have even seen nasturtiums and pansies served up at restaurants.
But if you have the time — or a lot of helpers — you can harvest enough flowers to make such treats as dandelion muffins or violet jelly.
Some flowers can be eaten whole, like dandelions, violets, daylily buds, and herb blossoms.
Calendula Calendula is a beautiful addition to the summer garden — and to summer meals!
Daylily That icon of summer, the daylily, has tasty buds and flowers that can be used in stir-fries, soups, and even stuffed with fruit and served for dessert.
If you have a good deal of time and patience, you can remove the sweet yellow petals and add them to baked goods, make a syrup, or brew your own dandelion wine.
If you have less time, a smaller number of petals make a pretty addition to salads and sprinkled on baked goods, soups, and other cooked dishes.
Try using rose petals to flavor ice cream, jelly, scones, and other baked goods.
Herb flowers can be added to vegetable and egg dishes and as a tasty garnish for soups.

While plain raw honey is pretty darned delicious, you can boost honey’s flavor even more by infusing it with herbs, spices, and other seasonings.
As a sugar, honey is hygroscopic: it thoroughly draws moisture out of anything it touches, making it easy to infuse it with herbs, spices, and other aromatics.
Our master herb infused honey recipe, below, calls for dried herbs, which will infuse your honey with their aroma and flavor steadily over the course of a week, and yield a shelf-stable flavored honey that you can drizzle over ice cream or use to flavor your tea or baked goods.
Pour the honey on top and stir well to combine.
Allow the honey to infuse for 5 to 7 days (or longer, if you want a stronger flavor).
Every day or so, flip the jar upside down, making sure all of the herbs and spices get coated.
After a week, warm the infused honey in the jar until slightly runny (dipping the closed jar in a warm water bath works well).
Try These Herb And Spice Combinations Lavender and Cardamom Pods Honey Good on plain yogurt, vanilla ice cream, or fresh berries.
Since you can’t strain ground ginger, this honey will get spicier the longer it sits!
(Here are 7 surprising benefits of eating more ginger.)

One thing’s for sure though: These summer vegetable and fruit flavor combos will take your summer cooking game to the next level.
Why it works: Salty, creamy mozzarella contrasts with the sweetness and acidity of both tomatoes and watermelon.
Basil adds a note of freshness and also helps play up the natural sweetness.
When you’re throwing together a summer salad, an easy combo that never disappoints is some version of zucchini, fresh mint, and feta.
Why it works: Both salty feta and cool mint contrast zucchini’s mild sweetness, but cocoa powder adds an earthy, almost smoky element that also bumps up zucchini’s flavor.
Why it works: Pine nuts and caramel-like dates both enhance eggplant’s inherent sweetness once it’s cooked.
Why it works: Both lemon and thyme add contrasting flavor notes that cut through the sweetness of the honey and fruit… one version citrus-y, the other herb-y.
But sometimes we try to cut back on dairy.
Why it works: Salty goat cheese contrasts watermelon’s natural sugars, while sweet, licorice-like fennel enhances them.
Use it in: Make a surprising summer salad by tossing cubed watermelon with chopped fresh mint and thinly shaved fennel.
